Editor of Sudarshan News posts controversial cartoon showing Muslims pelting stones at Chandrayaan 3
New Delhi: Suresh Chavhanke, the editor of Sudarshan News, a media outlet known for its polarizing content, recently posted a cartoon on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, which has sparked controversy.
The cartoon, accused of being anti-Muslim and inflammatory, depicts Muslims throwing stones at Chandrayaan 3, India's third lunar exploration mission by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).
The cartoon features characters dressed in traditional Kurta Pajamas and wearing skull caps, symbolically shown hurling stones at the Chandrayaan 3 lander. The illustration also includes a display board with the text in Hindi reading, "chand ki Zameen waqf ki milkiyat hai," which translates to "The Moon's land belongs to Waqf," a statement that appears to mock the Waqf board.
Chavhanke had previously faced legal consequences for his online behavior. He was arrested on August 11 by the Cyber Crime Unit of Gurugram Police for posting an inflammatory tweet on X. The tweet in question was related to the Nuh Violence and implicated foreign media house Al Jazeera in influencing law enforcement actions that allegedly resulted in the arrest of individuals associated with the Hindutva movement.
Following his arrest, Chavhanke was granted bail. However, another individual who shared his controversial tweet was placed in judicial custody.

UP: Fake IAS officer marries woman, flees with Rs 15 lakh dowry
Gorakhpur (UP) (PTI): A newly married man fled with the Rs 15 lakh given to him as dowry by the bride's family, and it came to light later that he was an alleged serial scammer, police said on Sunday.
The accused, identified as Pritam Kumar Nishad from Etawah, allegedly posed as an IAS officer to deceive the woman into marrying him. He is currently absconding with his sister, and a case has been filed against him for cheating, dowry harassment, and forgery, officials said.
According to the police, the woman's family claimed that they spent nearly Rs 30 lakh for the wedding that was solemnised on March 11.
The match was arranged through a matrimonial group, where the accused introduced himself as an IAS officer, sharing purported interview clips, office visuals, and photographs with politicians to gain the family's trust.
Despite initially claiming he would marry without dowry, the accused allegedly demanded Rs 15 lakh shortly before the engagement. The bride's family paid Rs 10 lakh in cash during the engagement and the remaining Rs 5 lakh on the wedding day, the police said.
The fraud came to light on Saturday after the woman reached Etawah, and a wedding attendee informed the family that the accused was not a civil servant. When her relatives visited the address provided by him, they found her in a small rented room, while the accused and his sister had fled, the police added.
The woman has also alleged that the accused planned to take her to Goa and sell her, and accused him of inappropriate behaviour.
The police suspect that the accused may have been involved in multiple such marriages in the past. Based on a complaint lodged at the cantonment police station, an FIR was registered on Saturday evening.
Senior Superintendent of Police Dr Kaustubh said efforts are underway to arrest the accused.
